Tang riddles

Chapter 129

Shen Jin really didn't know how to face the person in front of him.Should I question her?Asked why she chose to stand in the enemy's camp and kidnap His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Datang, creating such an unmanageable mess.However, what position does she have to question her?At best, he is just her friend.Even the status of "friend" is a bit reluctant, she knows nothing about her, it's just a friendship of playing a few songs together and traveling together for a period of time, roughly, it can barely be called a casual acquaintance.

Shen Jin curled his lips ironically.

However, the helping hand when they first met at the gate of Chunming, the inexplicable throbbing when they first met at Shen's house in Chang'an, and all kinds of things during the trip to Jiangling after that, have already made this person feel different in her heart.She couldn't see herself, and she couldn't speak, and their communication could only rely on physical contact.At first, it was the empathy brought about by the regret of the same incomplete body that made her pay attention to her.And after that?Her eyes always followed this person, and she paid special attention to where she was and what she was doing.What the hell is this?

Before she could figure it out, my elder sister told her that this person's identity was suspicious and she should not be approached.Auntie was right, and Shen Jin obediently kept a distance from her.She tried to downplay her influence in her heart, and it seemed to really work. She seemed to be able to stop thinking about her and stop paying attention to her.However, when she heard that Qianhe had left and disappeared, she couldn't fake the feeling that a piece of her heart had been ripped away.

That night, she saw her in the East Palace, and what she said made Shen Jin feel that the whole world was spinning.She decided that this person must have been involved in some kind of trouble, and it was extremely unusual for her to appear beside the prince.However, she asked her to keep it a secret, and Shen Jin felt that she was really stupid, and she really kept it a secret for her.She couldn't make up her mind and couldn't tell the matter.She originally thought that she would look for another opportunity to enter the Eastern Palace to find her and have a good talk with her.

But it was too late for her to know.

Yuan Qianhe, how do you tell me to face you again?You and I are already on opposite sides, do you want me to catch you back, or let you go?Hehe, with my broken body, I can't stop you at all.Are you sent by God to torture me?

Shen Jin raised his hand to cover his eyes, and bit his dry and peeled lower lip.

"Erlang, wake up... Are you thirsty? Do you want to drink water?" Qianhe waited for a long time, but did not get a response from Shen Jin, so he couldn't help but confirm again.

Only Shen Jin's trembling body and the sound of sobbing were the only answers to her.

Chizuru's lips trembled.

She gritted her teeth, leaned out tremblingly, touched the water bag in the distance, and pulled it back with great effort.Her body was stiff, and the muscles in her back seemed unable to stretch at all. Shen Jin even felt her body tremble due to the severe pain when she leaned out.

Shen Jin suddenly remembered that her back was cut, could it be...

Shen Jin stretched out his hand with difficulty and reached her back, but Qianhe couldn't dodge in time, and she touched her right away.Shen Jin's hand touched the viscous and warm liquid in an instant, and she took a look at it, her hand was bright red, and the smell of blood immediately permeated, and she gasped.The clothes on her back were already stained red with blood.Moreover, after being stained red and hardened, the wound was torn and soaked in blood again.

Shen Jin's mouth was open, her jaw was trembling unconsciously, she couldn't speak, but she was suffocated due to shock and heart-wrenching pain, and she cried silently.

"Heh...heh... don't cry...it's nothing...uh...it's nothing..." Qianhe couldn't completely bear the severe pain, his face was as pale as gold paper.But she suppressed the painful groans and gasps in her voice, while trying to comfort her in a calm tone.

The light in the cave was dim, and Shen Jin could barely make out her outline.Her hair bun was messed up, her clothes were dusty, scratched in several places, her whole body was in a mess, and her knife disappeared, she was no longer the breeze and moon-like Japanese female warrior.

She struggled to unplug the water bag, groped for Shen Jin's face, touched her lips, and wanted to pass the water bag over to feed her.But she didn't want to, but Shen Jin firmly grasped her hand.

"Drink water..." Qianhe repeated these two words.

Shen Jin grabbed her hand and wrote on the back of her hand:

【Help me up, I want to see your injury. 】

Chizuru just shook her head, she didn't have the energy to speak anymore.

Shen Jin gritted his teeth, propped himself up on the ground, and propped up his upper body vigorously.She was numb from the waist down, but she was able to sit up on her own anyway, although it was quite strenuous and usually required assistance.After all, Qianhe reached out to support her, Shen Jin sat up, propped himself up, and moved to Qianhe's side.Just such a simple action already made her out of breath.

While breathing evenly, she looked at the scene in front of her.Just now she couldn't fully see her lying posture, but now she sat up and realized that this cave is quite wide, with a few holes drilled in the inner cave wall and a few torches inserted, barely counted as lighting.

There were a few scattered people in the cave, all hidden in the shadows, resting with their weapons in their arms.Shen Jin and Qianhe were located in the deepest part of the cave, and most of the others were close to the entrance of the cave. Not many people approached here, as if no one existed here.

At the entrance of the cave, there seemed to be a fork in the road, and the prince's screams could be faintly heard coming from the other side of the fork. Under the faint light at the entrance of the cave, a tall figure stood with his hands behind his back, his back was as stubborn as a giant rock. , pressed heavily into Shen Jin's eyes.

Shen Jin breathed steadily, ignoring the situation of those people in the distance, she turned around, pressed Qianhe's shoulder, leaned her head over, and carefully inspected the injury on her back.Qianhe didn't have the strength to resist, so he could only let her watch.

As soon as Shen Jin rolled his eyes, he bit his lip.A horrible wound, from the upper right to the lower left, across her not wide back.The wound was not bandaged at all, and the cut part was exposed.The wound was deep, and the flesh was turned outwards, and it was still stuck to the fibers of the torn clothes on the back. The blood barely stopped, but the wound had not completely scabbed yet, and blood oozed out whenever he moved. The situation was terrible.

"Erlang... I'm fine, don't... leave me alone..."

Shen Jin was angry and sad at the same time, leaned into her ear, and said in a breathy voice:

[Shut up, don't move around, I'll bandage you up. 】

The hot breath spewed out to Qianhe's ears, and in the darkness, her ears quickly turned red, but the light was dim and she couldn't see clearly.

Then she heard the sound of clothes being torn, and Shen Jin took off his robe completely, cut the opening with a sharp stone, and tore it into long strips.Wrap the clean side around Qianzuru's body, wrapping up the wound on her back completely.After tying it tight, she breathed a sigh of relief, and whispered in Qianhe's ear again:

[The current conditions are poor, so we can only simply wrap it up.You have lost a lot of blood and need immediate medical treatment, and this cannot be delayed any longer.I have to find a way to get you out, or you'll die. 】

Chizuru just smiled wryly and shook his head.

Shen Jin gritted his teeth and said angrily:

【What happened to you? !Minato Chizuru, don't think that just because you have a relationship with me, I will sympathize with you.The great crime you committed is not enough to pay for the punishment of the nine clans, do you understand? 】

"The Nine Clans? I don't have any Nine Clans. In this world, the only person I can still call my relatives is him. If he is gone, I will be alone, and I will have nothing to worry about from now on." She suddenly sarcastically He laughed twice, "Speaking of which, if the sage really wanted to kill my nine clans, he would have to destroy the current Dongying royal family. I can be considered a princess at any rate, and at worst I am also a noble daughter of a public family. It's amazing, hehehehehehehe..."

She sat there with her head bowed, smiling bitterly and sarcastically, her miserable appearance did not match the words "princess" and "noble lady" in her mouth at all, which shocked Shen Jin who was on the side.

After a while, Shen Jin asked softly:

【What the hell have you experienced? 】

"Want to know?"

【Um. 】

"Drink the water, and I'll tell you if you drink it." She handed over the water bag, and insisted that Shen Jin drink water.

[I have a sore throat and can't drink. 】Shen Jin said lightly.

Qianhe was stunned for a moment, and said: "At least take a sip, you have to drink water."

Shen Jin was silent for a moment, then took the water bag in her hand, and took a sip of it.When the cold water passed through her throat, it immediately tugged at her most sensitive pain-sensing nerves, causing her to break out in a cold sweat, and her whole body trembled unconsciously.

"What's wrong? Does it hurt?" Qianhe seemed to feel her pain and asked anxiously.

Shen Jin endured the pain and said weakly:

【nothing……】

Chizuru pursed her lips, and there was silence between the two of them.She mobilized the senses all over her body to feel the breath of the people around her.Feeling that she was almost comfortable and relaxed, Chizuru opened his mouth and said:

"Both of us are not very frank people."

【You are the least frank! 】Shen Jin said angrily in her ear, with a vicious tone, Qianhe felt as if his ears were being burned.

She couldn't help laughing, and said:

"Erlang, no, Zhongqin, I always thought that if you had a good voice, your voice would be the sound of nature. Now I hear you whispering in my ear, but I think this kind of voice is the best, and it's the best in the world. anyone's voice."

Shen Jin's cheeks burned, this guy, when is he still thinking of saying such things!

"I found one thing, because I can't see your lips and gestures, you can only communicate with me through physical contact and whispering. It seems that God wants us to be close to each other, and the rest of the healthy people are afraid to enjoy it. I don’t have such an opportunity, hehe.” After finishing speaking, he even smiled smugly.

This person is still in good spirits!Shen Jin panicked with embarrassment, and patted her, which should have hit her angrily, but because of lack of strength, it seemed like a spoiled child.

The atmosphere between the two became a little ambiguous and weird.

Shen Jinzheng was feeling ashamed, when Qianhe suddenly grabbed his hand.Her heart trembled, and she looked at Qianhe, only to realize that she was so close to her.

Qianhe raised her other hand and stretched it to the back of her own head. While untying the black cloth tied behind her head, she said:

"I have an eye injury. It's been 11 years, and I almost never show it to anyone. I don't know what I look like, can you help me see it? If...if it's ugly, don't...don't dislike me, okay? "At the end, her voice was trembling, trembling as if she was holding her hand tightly, and she even started to cry.

Shen Jin's eyes were wet with tears in an instant.

Then the blindfolded black cloth finally fell.Shen Jin gasped in shock, covered his lips, tears poured out uncontrollably, fell down and hit their clenched hands.

There was an ugly long scar running horizontally across her eyes, as if the word "one" was written on her eyes.Her eyelids were glued to the sockets, and she couldn't open them at all.Her eyeballs must have been cut with a knife, and she completely lost the ability to see.Such an ugly centipede-like scar appeared on such a delicate and beautiful face of hers, and the impact it brought was indescribable.

Shen Jin touched her scar with trembling hands.As soon as the fingertip touched it, it bounced off like a fire, as if her finger would hurt her.

【It hurts...】 She said.

She knows it hurts, she knows it, so she doesn't ask her stupid questions like "does it hurt?"

But she heard Qianhe comfort her with a smile:

"It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt anymore. I used to not care about what I couldn't see, really. But now I... wish I could see."

She tightened her grip on Shen Jin's hand, and said in a trembling voice:

"Zhongqin, I want to see what you look like..."

The corners of her tightly closed eyes under the scar ooze crystal clear tears.

The author has something to say: [Note] The public, specifically refers to the five or more bureaucrats who serve the emperor and the court and live in Gyeonggi (more than three are called "gui", four and five are called "tonggui"), and The aristocratic clans in ancient times had profound origins, and they matured under the promotion of the bureaucratic system of laws.After the Meiji Restoration, the original public aristocrats were transformed into "Gongqing Huazu". Duke, Marquess, Earl, Viscount, Baron and other titles are awarded according to family status.

The public family is relative to the samurai (the samurai are all military nobles formed by local tyrants), originally referring to the emperor and the imperial court, and later basically referring to the central nobles.
